Here's a brilliant clip (November 2010)....fuuuuunky >>>

Nice, Andy is great, they play that nice Beyonce's song "Work It Out".

He mixes very well his Vinnie's influence with a little bit of Gospel Chops's stuff, I like the fat sound he as on that clip, nice.

Yeah,

But he smells like cat food and Doritos...

MP

You mean he smells like a kangaroo ?

mmm, love those press rolls around 1:47. super tasty.

YEAH >>>

Excellent stuff. The whole band is slamming.

His kit sounds great, as does he.

They’re growing some rad drummers down in Oz huh?

Both of those clips are some of the funkiest fusion I've heard in a LOOOOONG time. It's cool to hear Andy in this setting, too, because you hear a different side of him beyond his gospel chops thing. He's still spot on funky/groovy.

There's a noticeable lack of a checkered shirt, though. Hmmmm. Wonder if he's still in the club ...

EDIT: BTW, I believe that first tune is an old Mike Stern tune that had Weckl. I like Andy's interpretation of that swunky thing better.

Yep, it´s Tipatina´s from PLAY... Dennis played on that one, but maybe Mike recorded the track early with Dave?

(btw, Dennis is phaaat on that track!)

Wow, Andy just KILLS !!!

PS : it seems that he went to add the Keith Carlock favorite's lick in his drumming...
